The 451st chapter sacrifice (5)

"The singing girls sent by the Southern Tang Kingdom tonight. Let's hold a banquet in the big tent, you can set up a place." Guo Shao walked outside the nearby central army tent and suddenly turned around and said to the generals beside him.

Lu Chengyong had no expression on his face and clasped his fists hard and said, "I will understand."

When Guo Shao raised his head, he was the first to see a square tiger-embroidered square flag hanging on the high flagpole. He wrote: In front of the hall, he inspected the Grand Marshal of the World. The red flag material and gold thread embroidery were particularly eye-catching under the pale sky. The gray clouds and small snowflakes were floating in the air, like falling white petals. The central army tent was larger than all the surrounding tents and different shapes. Only this tent was round like a granary.

Guo Shao walked to the door, and two rows of soldiers spread their legs and lifted the cherry gun upwards to show their respect. Guo Shao also nodded to them, but the other generals around him ignored the pawns standing on the whistle.

As soon as I entered the tent, I saw a wide and empty space. This is the place where the generals of the Central Army or discuss military affairs, which is equivalent to the lobby of the government office; there is a chair above and some benches made of thick wood on both sides. However, there is no war today, and the generals are all in their respective barracks, with no one inside, and it looks very empty.

There was no one on the big tent. Guo Shao carried a sack with paper, walked around the chair in the upper position, lifted the curtain and walked in. There was a slightly cramped place, with a wooden table and bench. These things were made roughly, and the materials were made of new wood, which were made by the craftsmen after camping.

Guo Shao threw the sack on the table and turned around. There were many small notes on an erected "blackboard". The note at the highest point reads "Li Yu", and there are names of characters such as Liu Cheng, Chen Qiao, Han Xizai, etc. below, respectively, and are connected in different positions, with lines in the middle. A map was hung on the right side of the wooden board. Guo Shao stood there, looking at the names without saying a word, then turned to look at the map, and found the place in Jingkou skillfully.

At this time, someone said carefully outside the door: "Lord, General Li is in."

"Yes." Guo Shao made a sound without looking back.

Soon, Li Chuyun lifted the curtain and came in. Guo Shao turned his back to him, but knew that Li Chuyun was standing there and not sitting. General Li and Shi Yanchao had completely different personalities. He knew very well.

"General Li, please sit down." Guo Shao said, before turning around.

Then Li Chuyun clasped his fists and said, "Greetings to the lord."

Guo Shao bowed slightly, found a wooden bench to sit down, and said, "The deployment of Liu Cheng in the east of the Southern Tang Dynasty was very average in his knowledge and ability; a while ago, Cao Bin followed the Wu Yue army westward, and used a little trick to make him lose two important towns, which shows that Liu Cheng is just a person like Er."

Li Chuyun nodded and said yes.

Guo Shao also said: "While this person was restraining the Jingkou Navy, we launched the Jingkou War, and the timing was very appropriate."

Li Chuyun said: "There have been some secret reports on Jiangning Mansion's detailed work recently. I have seen it when Wang Envoy (Wang Pu) came here. Have you ever seen it?"

Guo Shao nodded.

Li Chuyun stroked a black and strong bearded man and said, "After Lin Renzhao's defeat and returned to Jiangning, Liu Cheng once brought trouble. Lin and Liu had a gap. Chen Qiao (Guang Zhengyuan assisted the government) and Lin Renzhao had a good relationship. From this, it can be speculated that Chen Qiao may attack Liu Cheng in the court, and it is impossible to predict whether Liu Cheng would lose the military power in the east."

"General Li is right." Guo Shao nodded and looked back at the notes, "But it is said that Li Yu trusts Liu Cheng very much, and it was also Li Yu's order to take office as the east side. Chen Qiao is a minister after all, and it is not easy to attack the commander appointed by the king of the country."

Li Chuyun pondered and said, "Li Yu is a man of modest appearance, but not like a docile person... He is in the deep palace and is a little inadequate in the situation in the Southern Tang Dynasty, but he will not submit easily. What the lord said is extremely true, and I am afraid he will not completely obey the ministers."

When Li Chuyun said this, he thought to himself that it was the Southern Tang peacekeeping envoy and the group of singing girls suspected of assassins. He heard that Guo Shao stayed in the tent last night. At that time, Zuo You strongly advised and disobeyed Guo Shao and stayed in his tent all night, which basically ruined others' good things. Zuo You was very nervous about Guo Shao's safety, and there was nothing wrong with him doing that.

Li Chuyun actually cared about Guo Shao's safety. In this circle of people, Guo Shao is the core figure, who doesn't care? But Li Chuyun did not persuade him as loyally as Zuo You. Because he felt that Guo Shao had probably been calculating for his actions... What kind of person is Guo Shao? Li Chuyun looked up and saw the notes and maps posted on the wooden board. The meticulous and cautious people were very thoughtful about countless trivial matters in the entire battle. Will such people not be able to see the hidden dangers of those people?

Li Chuyun guessed that staying in the singing girl was apart from Guo Shao's confidence in his own vision of knowing people and showing trust and love for the woman, the most important thing was to conclude that someone would persuade her. How could the civil and military officials around her sit still? This was the case, Zuo You played that role.

However, Guo Shao also has his own character, and he does have the character of using people without doubt, so Li Chuyun and others are actually very peaceful in their plans under his command, and they have almost never been suspicious. Li Chuyun led his troops and was boldly appointed to make decisions on the spot. No one can say whether Guo Shao's approach is good or weak.

...At this time, Zuo You and Dong Zunhui also came in, and Guo Shao said casually: "Mr. Zuo is quite capable, and he is not sleepy now?"

Then he walked in and Shi Yanchao. The small house suddenly became lively. It was strange that there was a big place outside and there was a group of people rushing to this place because Guo Shao came here first.

Shi Yanchao said: "I heard that Wang Pu will arrive at the military camp tomorrow?"

Li Chuyun didn't say anything, Zuo You responded. Although Shi Yanchao only called Wang Pu's name, he was still respectful when he saw it. There are really all kinds of strange things in the world. Wang Pu and Shi Yanchao were both difficult people among the civil and military officials of the Zhou court. However, Shi Yanchao, a big man with a thorn all over his body, rarely had conflicts with Wang Pu, and he was polite. He still remembered when Wang Pu would arrive.

Guo Shao heard it and thought that people like Shi Yanchao may be typical of ordinary arrogant soldiers and generals. He is not just disobeying the rules, but only respecting people who he thinks are strong. Although Wang Pu is a civil servant, he is obviously not a person with a false reputation. Shi Yanchao is still quite sensible.

The group started to talk about it one after another because Guo Shao himself did not say anything.

The people around were talking about military affairs, mainly deploying the Beijing-mouth war. Guo Shao was a little distracted for a moment, and he thought of Zhou Xian again. Although this woman could not be compared with the Fu sisters, she was indeed a woman who made him very concerned about.

How to get Zhou Xian is a test of your hard work.

Of course, it is very simple to possess her. Just like the way the world is doing, it is imprisoned directly. The court has deep ethics and ethics that are deeply obedient and four virtues are just to imprison a woman? But in doing so, I am afraid that she will never get something she really has; if a woman is reluctant, it will be difficult for her to show her charming side.

Guo Shao has always believed that the highest pleasure lies in emotions. Otherwise, the process of letting her lie straight on the bed and endure insults is no different from a doll?

He was also distracted in the army for a moment, and Zhou Xian's pitiful gentleness and careful service appeared in his mind... This woman was born with something that inspired a man's feelings to be a man. She would swell herself in front of her and couldn't help but want to take care of her. There were other good things that made Guo Shao think of. He thought of some gentle place, and his heart seemed to be caressed by a rough brush; and her unbearable performance, so Guo Shao felt that he was extremely powerful.

Guo Shao breathed out and thought about the banquet tonight. If there were indeed assassins among these people, it would be better to give them a chance to expose them. In this way, Jiangning Mansion could not blame Zhou Xian and others for their responsibility; it was a matter of loyalty at all times, and no one could be sure whether they succeeded. The pressure Zhou Xian faced in the future should be reduced... Guo Shao understood that a person is not an independent existence when he lives. She has various identities and concerns.
